Therapists in Saint Petersburg, FL

**EVENING and SATURDAY HOURS** Making the decision to seek therapy is an important and personal choice. It is often difficult for us to sort out solutions to issues that on the surface seem simple, but in real life can be crippling, disorienting and sources of conflict. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe, confidential space for self-exploration and healing that promotes mental wellness and empowers the client to move forward in their life. Let me help you move forward in this positive journey towards increased self-awareness and clarity of self.

Sonne Goode is the founder of Goode Thoughts Therapy! She is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in addition to a Professional School Counselor and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). Sonne is devoted to supporting clients in achieving their goals and making positive change through an eclectic approach including cognitive behavioral and solution focused perspectives.

So often we feel like we know what we want in our lives, but struggle to make it happen. I believe therapy is a safe space where clients can explore underlying beliefs that may be preventing them from achieving their goals through curiosity and warmth. Accurately understanding how my clients see themselves and the world is vital to my process as is building a strong therapeutic relationship. I believe therapy is collaborative, and I focus on empowering my clients to develop healthy lifelong skills. I have an LMHC in New York and am a registered out-of-state telehealth provider for clients in Florida.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, a professionally certified specialist in The Grief Recovery Method®, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have been in the helping profession for over thirty years, with more than twenty-years a licensed clinician. I strive to apply authenticity professionally, as I strive to personally. I believe together we will unleash the power and insight already within you. I applaud your courage to travel beyond the familiar, entering this journey with me. I believe you will not regret the choice you have now made. We will develop a plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I believe that each and every one of us faces our own unique challenges and transitions throughout our lifetime. Sometimes these changes may become too much and it interferes with our daily lives and how we function and/or interact in our relationships. I specialize working with adults who are going through change in their life which may include loss or bereavement, loss of relationship or divorce, change in role (i.e., parenthood, retirement, caregiving, etc), significant change in health, career change, relocation, etc. I also support individuals that may experience depression, anxiety and trauma/PTSD.

If you're feeling emotionally vulnerable, stuck, anxious, experiencing the challenges of a faith transition or being ‘othered’ in any way, I welcome the opportunity to work together to find the relief you're seeking. I personally relate to these identity markers and understand how navigating life and identity can be difficult. I can be supportive in creating a safe and brave space for you to be at ease with being your authentic self and work towards accomplishing your mental health goals!

Emotions can be hard, life can be hard, dealing with trauma, depression and anxiety is hard, dealing with chronic pain is hard. So many things that we have to navigate in life can feel overwhelming and the struggle can feel unwinnable. You don’t have to do it alone! We can work together to make a plan for making sure you have the tools you need to deal with any situation that arises in life, the big and the small and everything in between. I am a compassionate understanding open minded person who approaches mental health treatment through a trauma informed lens.

Please note all services are 100% virtual. I provide a non-judgmental, compassionate space for you to explore issues with a holistic focus. I believe the mind-body connection is essential, and that the stories we tell ourselves create our lives. Together we will strive for empowerment, coping skills, authentic living, and more trust in your ability to manage life's difficulties. As a licensed Clinical Psychologist I work with individuals who struggle with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, grief/loss, self esteem/worth, boundaries, and much more.

Sometimes it feels as if we lost our way; our closest relationships are a constant source of conflict and loneliness, and we struggle to find true connections, clarity, confidence, hope, and peace. It does not need to be that way. You can be seen and loved for who you really are, and you can count on yourself and others through the ups and downs of life. I enjoy guiding people through that journey to become their best selves and to enjoy fulfilling relationships.

You are exhausted as you try to manage it all with your inner critic snapping at you. I help LGBTQIA+ people feel affirmed, and people in highly demanding careers. My style is warm and inviting. Figuring life out can be draining and anxiety can rise. Improve self-esteem as we navigate the journey together! I'm gay myself, so I understand how weird this world can feel. Let's work together to bring back a sense of ease and calm. You can learn how to deal with stress, overwhelm, and feelings of unease. Website: PatrickTullyTherapy.com

I work intensively with my patients, meeting with each patient several days a week. With this frequency of sessions, and with a particular kind of listening that psychoanalysts are trained for, I can hear thoughts and feelings beyond the surface of the patient’s spoken comments, and this helps me help my patients identify unconscious forces from their past that are causing them to suffer. I am aware that psychological struggles take time to develop, and therefore it requires time and work to achieve desired changes. I offer a safe and confidential setting, where this work can take place, in privacy, and with respect.

The 'ideal client' for counseling is someone who is sick & tired of being sick & tired. They are ready for change & peace of mind and ready to see their part in problems. Through counseling and consultation, they can acquire skills to think, feel and behave differently in situations and relationships for better outcomes. Self respect, self worth and esteem get better. Clients notice they feel lighter. There is an overall increased sense of well being. They are increasingly able to do the next right thing while avoiding falling down the rabbit hole of old patterns which initially brought them into counseling.

Purposeful growth...... it's what we all want. A chance to make a difference in our day to day lives. And, at one time or another, we need the help of others to do this.

Hello and thank you for reading my profile. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I use a systemic approach to emphasize factors such as relationships and communication patterns. By seeking therapy you are starting the journey to a healthier happier you. You are taking the steps necessary to find your voice and start living to your life's potential. It is my belief that your greatest change comes from within. My goal is to help you make that change, and start getting fulfillment from your life and your relationships.

Sometimes we become better at seeming to be well, rather than actually being well. Living our fullest lives comes when we are aligned mind, body, and soul. This life of wellness is a delicate balance that can be impacted by life and other circumstances leaving us looking for a change. Therapy doesn't have to be a last resort when we're struggling and feel out of options; perhaps it is just the next step to wellness. Working with a therapist can be helpful in finding and maintaining your balance, to reconnect with your authentic self.

You may be wondering if you really need a therapist, like why can't you just keep doing it yourself? But you know you feel depressed, anxious...sometimes you feel like you can't handle one more thing going wrong. Friends and family are great (or not!), but there's nothing like having someone completely independent that you can confide in without judgment. My clients know they can trust me, they feel safe. I'm genuine, and I believe everyone has goodness and worthiness underneath your depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, or addiction and the related problems.
